Verse 1: I'm living life with trust issues, it's hard to let my guard down I've been betrayed so many times, it's hard to turn my frown around I've had friends who turned their backs, and lovers who were just users I'm sick of getting played, I'm tired of being a loser Chorus: Trust issues got me feeling low, I can't let go of what I know I'm always on the lookout, it's hard to let my guard down My trust issues keep me safe, but they also keep me locked down Verse 2: I've been let down by family, and even by my own reflection It's hard to trust myself, let alone anyone's direction I've been lied to and deceived, and I'm tired of the games I'm trying to heal my heart, but it's hard to ease the pain Chorus: Trust issues got me feeling low, I can't let go of what I know I'm always on the lookout, it's hard to let my guard down My trust issues keep me safe, but they also keep me locked down Verse 3: I'm working on myself, trying to build up my self-esteem I'm learning to trust my instincts, and to follow my dreams I'm surrounding myself with love, and letting go of the hate I'm taking back my power, and I won't let anyone dictate Chorus: Trust issues got me feeling low, I can't let go of what I know I'm always on the lookout, it's hard to let my guard down My trust issues keep me safe, but they also keep me locked down Outro: I'm not gonna let my past define me, I'm breaking free from the chains I'm gonna trust again, and I won't let fear rule my brain I'm a survivor, and I'm stronger than I know I'm gonna keep on moving, and let my trust issues go.
